Hello,
both are quite common and easy to find (in Europa).

I spent 2 years looking for L134 in the states and finally got some about 2 years ago... they've since become a much more common occurence, I paid in the $20-$25 range for mine. L129 is available occasionally too, I got a good deal on an aqubid auction, even if the seller was a dork. I paid about $10 per, if buying again I'd expect more like $20 though.
You're very unlikely to see either of these fish in your LFS though, look online at places like aquabid.com(beware, place is a den of thieves anymore, check feedback) and frybabies.com... also can try fish2u.com but they're fish have never come in really healthy for me. Hope that helps.

im sorry i forgot to add the L052 butterfly Pl*co so i edited the post and hope to have some resopnce about it as well, they stay a bit smaller and all i have is a 20 gal with an alge problem. lol. and they seem to be a bit better of an alge eater than the other two.

Hi,
I think, it´s not really helpful for you, but L 52 is also quite common in Europe.
But if I look at the prices, S. Allen told, I guess, plecos are a little bit more expensive in Europe than in the states.
